HONG KONG, March 31, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- From the Outback to Sydney, Western Australia to Tasmania, people across the continent are gearing up for the travel season.

Australians rank very high among likely travelers, both within the continent and abroad. Business travel among Australians is considerable, and trips to countries such as China, Japan and Russia are common these days. For the occasion, DealExtreme has announced the offering of the gear, gadgets and travel expertise to assist those looking at a trip in their near future.

Frequent travelers know that a key ingredient for a successful trip is having the right things available when you need them. Those inexpensive foam ear plugs become priceless when seated next to a crying infant on a crowded plane. A universal power adapter can mean the difference between sending that important document back to the office, or sitting idle with a dead laptop, and that travel pillow the difference between restful sleep and a sore neck the next day.

Overseas travel for both business and leisure has pitfalls that can be avoided by following some very simple and common sense rules, such as: obey the laws of the country you're visiting even if these appear harsh or unfair by Australian standards. Make sure you have the right visas for the countries you are visiting or transiting -- remember that a visa doesn't guarantee entry. Take out comprehensive travel insurance and ensure it covers you for the destinations you plan to visit and the activities you plan to participate in, and make sure you have the necessary travel items you need for a safe holiday or productive business trip. "It's important to be well informed about the destination you're travelling to so you don't unwittingly get into strife," says the Australian Government's department of Foreign Affairs. "Australians love to travel, and as a nation they're doing it more and more. You will find Australians in almost every corner of the globe, making new friends, enjoying unique experiences and absorbing themselves in another country's culture."

DealExtreme is confident they can bring to the table what travelers from Australia, and from around the globe, need to make their travel season a great one.
